Dong Lu was blunt: "This is clearly a stage for match-fixing! There is no need to search for any more evidence, the full-match video itself is the most direct proof! Someone must come forward, and someone must pay for this!"
Li Pingkang analyzed: "In this farce of match-fixing, it is important not to point the finger at the coaches and players, who are just pawns on the chessboard. Let me share with you a personal experience of a women's soccer match at the 2009 Shandong National Games. At that time, a now-famous coach was still just a young manager at the beginning of his career. His team took a 1-0 lead in the first half against Province L, the strongest team in the Games. However, at halftime, a phone call from the C's in charge of Chinese sports forced the coach to make a change in personnel. The originally superior L Province team then easily turned around with two goals. In this case, it is obviously unfair to blame the coach and the players. The real culprits are those officials who play with power in the palm of their hands, and those ridiculous games where the distribution of benefits far exceeds the spirit of sportsmanship!"
